Wandora's OpenCyc extractor (classifier) takes a term or multiple terms and retrieves related terms from OpenCyc web API. User has to select which kind of relations he/she is interested in. Available relation types are

  • Classes
  • Instances
  • Generalizations aka Superclasses
  • Specializations aka Subclasses
  • Denotations
  • Comments
  • Siblings

For example, user may start the extractor with File > Extract > OpenCyc classifier and request classes for cats and dogs as shown below

Notice user has capitalized first letters in both search words. Capitalization is required as search words are strictly matched to OpenCyc terms. Successful extraction generates OpenCyc term subclass for Wandora class and potentially multiple instances for the OpenCyc term. In our example both Dog and Cat have classes in OpenCyc. Topics and OpenCyc originating associations are viewed below.
